    Default Need fair replacement values on some parts

    Hey guys just got back into our home...see re-introduce myself post for more info. So anyways I'm trying to get some real values on some of the less common parts that my now ex-wife sold as I presume for scrap. Here is a small list of what I need help with and it seems I'm finding more and more stuff gone every time I go looking in my storage.

    79-81 sport tuned exhaust tip with hanger from muffler back. This piece I would rate VG

    Aftermarket 4v intake that was smog legal replacement with Matching EGR plate. Edealbrock I think. Installed one engine and never run.

    4 Saleen DP5 16x7 and 16x8. Driver quality...silver SSC style wheel

    Hurst SVO shifter with boot and knob-nice driver quality

    Ford Motorsport T-bird front mount intercooler...used 100% complete including box and instructions


    This is just a short list as most of the other items missing are easy to put an "fair value" on, wheels, t5's intakes and radiators,etc...
    Thanks as any help on these prices or values

    My suggest is, change the location, move all your currently stuff out to different storage, or switch key,

    Both of you now doing is " revenge " to each other, its BEST to walk away, without going to court and sue her.... Walk away, forget everything she take, walk away and start fresh.

    One thing about women, if they leave you, they will want you live in miscible life , strike her back , by focust on yourself, making more moneys, and get back on your feet, without dealing with her ( go court over stuff... ), that tell her " I dont need these S***, if you want take it, I DONT CARE " , focust on your job and your health, and have another women that love you who you are,

    remember learn to respect your wife, treat her nice, dont be abuser, dont be a hard head, protect her, support her, and respect her, every man wont tell you this, but their wife actually the boss of the house , happy marry for since 18 i am 29 now. I learn from alot older long term marry couple.

    and some women are abuser to man, you figure that out the first month you guy dating or live together, avoid that. Or man up and have a talk with her how you feel.

    This is a contempt of court case...on my now ex-wife. She had been squatting in the house. I have not seen or spoken to her in 8 months. She defaulted in all court hearings during our divorce. Removed at gun point after being court ordered to vacate the property. So I'm having to collect the values on all damages and missing personal property. It's not revenge just karma coming back on her...

    ...from what we can tell (courts,family on her side,friends,lawyers and dacuments stuff she left behind) that appears to have all been planed or pre mediated

    I am gonna stay out off this, if it my case I drop everything, I dont need nothing, I am a man I can start all over, material is just object, I dont need to win nothing. or get back nothing, get back $$ doesnt make me feel happy, even if I get back some money, and I use that money to buy something, that something will alway remind me of the ex when ever I look at it, so I walk away. Stay out of court system for good. Move on with my life, work on myself and start a fresh family, out off sight out off mind, that would make me happy.

    Do you ever post anything and think.... Perhaps I should just delete it and walk away....

    Thankfully it is so Incomprehensible that most will just skip reading it...

    You have no idea what the OP Has gone through, as well he was not asking for advice with the Ex, he was asking for price that some of these parts would be worth....

    To the Op... if they are Original Saleen Wheels, then they should be worth between $600 and $900 depending on condition.

    The original style (Edelbrock) intake is really only worth $100-$125

    Stinger has their Stock style end for $50, but I had heard they stopped selling them(I am not sure if that is true) but you cannot find a stock/stock replacement anywhere I have looked, so a real world price of $75-$100 would be fair.

    Good luck with your case, there comes a time in life that we do things not for money, not for revenge, but for the principle!

    haha with that little money, and principle ( fighting fighting fighting ) show up in court fighting, and had to deal with paper work, seeing ex, or mabe ex show up with her new bf....for me its not worth it, I would told the court, forget everything, drop everything and dont need anything have anything to do with her now and future, or any paper work court send me, or worry about anything else in the mail that they send me year from now. or getting more drama and hateful stress, or have to watch your back or your stuff or your car, you never know one of her boy could stop by and doing thing out off control, and have to get court protect and stay far 50 feet or what ever they offer now, drop everything. and move on and move far away from her, sound like his situation is pretty rough , gunpoint......

    what he do is just around and around with his ex, she still in his mind... like women mind is pretty rough, she wont let it go easy, she will get back one way or the other.

    think hard on this brother, think hard, I know you loose your stuff, but its worth to keep be around her ? those thing can get back, its little thing, money can alway make more. Think hard on it. I been thru couple battle in my life, and seeing thing from friends.. at the end its best to drop everything and focust on positive thing that have nothing to do with the past problem. You lucky you dont have any children with her, that will make you dealing seeing her for life or until child is move out...

    I have close friend give everything to his ex wife, and house, land, everything, he doesnt want anything to do with her any more now or future, he focust on his work and himself, he remarried about 7 years, date for 3 years, now he is a very happy man and happy wife, I talk to him and hang out with him, and I dont see him ever mention about anything that he give to his ex, look like he over come and like his ex not exist. that is a strong mind.

    Probably not. He asked for prices, not advice.

    -the 'bird/cougar FMIC, even used is "sorta" sought after. complete, with instructions, if you still have original box, i'd say at least $200, cause thats what i paid for mine about a year ago..... but also be aware there were two kits, an early and a late kit. on the early kit, the intercooler will be krinkle black and have "Ford Motorsports" on the side. the later were not "krinkle", but black and will say "Mfg by Spearco"........

    Thanks ragtopjr. This is what I'm looking for just a little help on what some of this stuff is worth.... And I have been getting back on my feet for myself and my two kids. Playing with all my cars, collecting and buy/sell or trading parts and cars are my hobby that I had to abbandon this last year or so. For myself and kids to come home to what was and now missing is painful. I'm an import tech-Subaru for a living so all of my domestic tools and stuff not needed at work were here. 30+ years of tools and some very sedimental stuff passed down from my uncle all gone. I know I may never see a dime from her through the courts on there end there contempt of court case with a civil case handed to me following. Your right it's not revenge it is the principal of it all. Why should anybody be able to do what they want against cort orders and get away with it. I or we gave her every opportunity to talk during our divorce. She was a no show to every hearing, and after the second one her lawyer with Drew from the case because she could not even contact my wife.

    Life is good and getting better everyday. Hopefully I have learned from my experance with all this...and moving on. Good people, positive energy and most of the fun stuff I love back in my life!

    Sorry this post went this direction, I thought it was a simple request.
    Thanks

    I'm so glad that someone was actually paying attention to what the OP was.really asking about. I'm constantly surprised when people offer unsolicited advice about their personal lives from total strangers as though they know what and whom they are talking about. That said...

    The dual exhaust tip...depending on it's condition could sell for a very good price. Purported NOS & aftermarket units like it have sold for absolutely silly amounts of money. There are simpler aftermarket versions of just the dual tip that.sell on eBay (and Stinger) for well under 100.00. As for what yours would sell for, it's anyone's guess.

    Thanks Sinister...i totally understand. I just noticed your aviatar and a friend of mine has something you may enjoy, I will get some pics next time I'm over at his shop.

    Anyways...yes I beleve wheels were Saleens...center caps had a generic Mustang sticker on them, under that what was left of a Saleen sticker and under that was DP...silver finish not SSC white.Staggered withs and offsets, correct for SVO/Motorsport 5-lug disc brake kit.

    TC intercoller was early Motorsports labeled

    Exhaust tip/ tail pipe was the early long twin tip that I have not seen after market-like in pic except with tail pipe to the muffler

    Getting back on topic, I can't remember what the last tailpipe like yours sold for exactly, but it was north of $200 and was shown in the FYI section. As you know, it is much different than the 82+ part. I remember when my dad and I bought a blown up 79 2.3T car, swapped in a 2.8, and cut a perfectly good, solid one off the car because it was way too loud!
